George Rebane
In a democracy it's never the minority, but always the lightly read majority that votes in the tyrant.
“… scientific evidence supporting facemasks’ efficacy is lacking, adverse physiological, psychological and health effects are established.” So reports our NIH here. And it’s federal law that you have to wear a face mask during your entire flight when traveling. Another righthand/lefthand confusion by government that no liberal in the land notices as they back more and more things an ever larger government will do to us. The rest of us see it for what it is – perennially expanding state power and control.
Rebane’s “far right ideology” continues to be a characteristic of my political demeanor that is oft cited, yet unsubstantiated, by local liberals. Now don’t get me wrong, I may have no problem being characterized with that label if I or my detractors knew the tenets of a far right ideology, tenets which I share as demonstrated by my published credo and extensive oeuvre of socio-political commentaries. I am truly interested in getting some liberal of sufficient intellect to offer up a cogent list (it doesn’t have to be long) of evidence that places me in their concept of the far right of our political spectrum.
[1may21 update] Not one of our leftwing worthies would/could? step up to the plate and give even one substantive example of my ‘far right’ attributes. This, of course, speaks to the larger problem shared by our semantically simplistic Left. They have no idea what are the definitions of the everyday words they use, like ‘racist’, ‘white supremacist’, ‘white nationalist’, ‘misogynist’, ‘rightwinger’, …, and now ‘far right’. To them it is all part of the approved narrative passed to them from their thought leaders – it’s completely acceptable in their circles to simply parrot, as long as you parrot the proper words. And speaking of semantically simplistic, to them such terms as ‘socialist’ and ‘socialism’ have binary meanings. If a person or country does not explicitly subscribe to ALL the attributes that define a socialist, then neither he nor the jurisdiction is socialist. The same goes for socialism; it’s all or none – nothing is seen to progress toward socialism until its final attribute is in place and verified.
George, since they won't do it, I guess I'll have to. Short list.
Reasons why you are far right:
1. Educated. In science no less. You thrive on facts;
2. Know the difference between facts and opinions/feelings;
3. Has read the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence more than once;
4. Opposes illegal aliens coming into the U.S., all 20+M of 'em;
5. Are a member of a religion;
Shah mat!

Efox 411pm - Shah mat! indeed. You've expanded the indictment to encompass attributes beyond the demonstrated right wing tenets that I requested. And you're right, of course, their indictment does encompass attributes regardless of tenets expressed or not.

Ah well, as Poll Emery so artlessly stated on Jan 9, 2021.
"After Capitol Hill Police Officer Brian Sicknick was murdered during Wednesday's insurrection by Trump supporters at the U.S. Capitol, Vice President Mike Pence and Speaker Nancy Pelosi called his grieving family to offer their condolences. "
I expect that the Times and the local newshound will apologize in a joint statement.

The pony tail of ignorance is right in line with huffpo -
At no point did HuffPost show Republicans had done anything but fill vacancies, which does not fit the definition of "court-packing."
"HuffPost is apparently partaking in the new liberal trend to redefine words – they have erroneously conflated filling judicial vacancies with ‘court packing’ and then based on that conflation, accused Sen. Cruz of gaslighting. It’s patently absurd and if anyone’s guilty of gaslighting, it’s the editors at HuffPost," a spokesman for Cruz told Fox News.
The term refers to a failed effort first undertaken by President Franklin D. Roosevelt to expand the size of the Supreme Court from 9 to 15 judges. Biden, when he was in the U.S. Senate, referred to Roosevelt's ploy as a "bonehead idea."
Critics unloaded on HuffPost's framing of the issue, accusing the site of gaslighting themselves, lying, and engaging in propaganda.

What a difference a year makes. What a breath of fresh air Biden is. Our President Trump one year ago is quoted as saying this:
'After senior DHS official Bill Bryan said that experiments have shown the novel coronavirus does not survive well in sunlight, warm temperatures or humidity, Trump began proposing his own solutions at the coronavirus task force update on Thursday.
“Suppose that we hit the body with tremendous, whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful light, and I think you said that it hasn’t been checked and you’re going to test it,”
“Suppose you can bring the light inside the body.”
“Then I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in one minute,” Trump continued. “Is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside, or almost a cleaning? … It would be interesting to check that.”

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/04/23/photos-costs-mount-as-biden-administration-holds-on-border-wall-projects/
"Shortly after taking office, President Joe Biden signed an executive order temporarily halting any further progress on border walls so individual contracts could be evaluated. With the exception of “make-safe” activities at worksites, construction projects immediately came to a halt, Breitbart Texas reported. The continuation of the pause keeps the contractors on site pending a final decision—one that does not appear to be imminent, according to the source.
The pause in construction costs taxpayers about $6 million per day, Breitbart Texas learned from the source. The expenditures are based on materials ordered before but delivered after the work stoppage plus compensation for equipment rentals or ownership costs.
Equipment sits idle in Mission, Texas, known as the Southwest Valley Constructors (SWC) site. SWC was awarded more than $1.5 billion in wall contracts in South Texas and Arizona. At the Mission site, concrete mixing machinery and aggregate materials plus stacks of steel gather dust."
Six million a day, to do nothing...

"The U.S. government is actually gearing up to share information about the "reality" of UFOs with the public — and not a moment too soon, says the man who claims to have run the Pentagon’s UFO program for 9 years.
Former President Donald Trump’s $2.3 trillion appropriation bill for 2021 contained a mandate that the Pentagon and spy agencies must file a report about "unidentified aerial phenomena" or UAP. Most of us just call them flying saucers or UFOs.
Whatever the jargon, noted whistleblower Luis Elizondo — former head of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, which operated out of the secretive fifth floor of the Pentagon’s C Ring — told The Post about the resulting blockbuster document, which is reportedly slated for release in June."

DEMOCRATS VOTE TO CONTINUE DISCRIMINATING AGAINST ASIANS
With race the topic du jour, it is odd that more attention isn’t being paid to the most obvious discrimination in our society: that against Asians. While employers commonly engage in such discrimination, the most viciously discriminatory organizations in our society are universities. Thus, Senate Republicans offered an amendment to the new “COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act” that would have ended federal funding of universities that discriminate against Asian American applicants. The amendment, sponsored by Ted Cruz and John Kennedy, was narrowly defeated by Senate Democrats. Aaron Ginn comments:

Emperor gavin was ready to sic the air guard on civilians a year ago -
California National Guard members say a fighter jet was put on standby for a "possible domestic mission" last year, raising concerns that the military could be used to disperse protesters in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, according to a report.
Four National Guard sources spoke to the Los Angeles Times about the matter, revealing that commanders were concerned about resistance to stay-at-home orders or chaos due to panic-buying.
According to the sources, an F-15C fighter was put on alert, which raised concerns among Guard members that the jet could be used to "buzz" crowds -- a tactic often used in combat zones to disperse the enemy.
The orders were allegedly handed down orally or through text messages rather than formally in writing, which made them highly unusual, the sources told the Times. The Guard members described such a tactic as an "inappropriate" use of military force against U.S. citizens.
"It would have been a completely illegal order that disgraced the military," one source told the Times. "It could look like we’re threatening civilians."

"Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Chris Coury had ordered the Arizona Senate to “pause” the audit if the Arizona Democratic Party would post a $1 million bond to cover the costs of the day. The party refused to so.
“The Arizona Democratic Party will not risk our supporters’ hard-earned dollars to pay off the Cyber Ninjas for a procedure they are billing Arizona taxpayers to the tune of $150,000,” the Arizona Democratic Party said in a statement."
Now the best part.
" According to state-certified results, Biden won the county by just over 45,000 votes and barely won the state by a 10,457-vote margin. If the audit discovers the alleged irregularities, it could prove that Trump is the legitimate winner of Arizona, and it could have huge implications for other states where irregularities were discovered."

Wow.
I'll bet his next hard-hitting expose' talks about parents teaching their kids not to run out in front of traffic.
Money quote:
“We’re not going to evade taxes, but we’re going to avoid them and defer them as much as we can,” Bill Schwartz, managing director at Wealthspire Advisors, said in an interview. “We’re only beginning to explore. Give us a year or two and we’ll find ways around things.”

Paul Emery @ 4:56 April 23 At least we have an intelligent person as President,
This is the same ignoramus who stated "we hold these truths to be self evident that all men are...well you know that thing!" Yep he's simply "brilliant" at least where selling out to the ChiComs are concerned...

Just as stupid as Emery's remark.
"Harris said, “This is a president who has an extraordinary amount of courage. He is someone who I have seen over and over again make decisions based on what he truly believes based on his years of doing this work and studying these issues, what he truly believes is the right thing to do."
And has accomplished NOTHING being in D.C. longer than the Flintstones... Well,, he did support and speak well of Klan members.... Got away with grabbing staffer's pu**ys. I guess you could call that courage too.

Looking good for Biden with a +11.6 approval rating. Trump was a +15 DISAPPROVAL polling. That's RCP consensus poling including Rasmussen. That's a 26 poingt difference in Bidens favor which gives some perspective on Bidens popularity and approval. Here's a link for your reading pleasure.

Walt Earth Mover, come on down! Whatz behind Door #3?
Kamala the pot smoker incarcerator was closer to the border just last week. In fact, she was at the border. So there, put that in your pipe and smoke it. Hmmm. Unfortunately, the VP in charge of the now ‘official border crises’ do not go to the souther border. She headed north like all those privileged people do. Now she has to figure out how many billions we are going to give Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, and other countries so their governments can take that money and pay the cartels. Might as well just take a few billion and throw it into the ocean. This ain’t 1968 where all the psycho babble was about fixing the ‘root problem’. They are Third World countries and are called 3rd World counties for a very good reason.
Seems Biden and Harris and the rest of the Peloski Burlesque Show are putting in overtime trying to get the U. S. of A. to become a Third World Country.

Rebanes far right ideology. John Solomon:
“A Just the News-Scott Rasmussen poll in January found a whopping 77% of Americans support mandatory voter ID, including 70% of Democrats and 72% of African-Americans.”
‘Growing number of black leaders embrace voter ID, reject Biden's Jim Crow claims’
From sports to politics to business, black leaders are beginning a counteroffensive against Stacey Abrams' views on voting
"You have the mainstream media, you know, initially trying to gaslight the American people, making those of us who see this as a very common-sense practical policy and procedure to be somewhat crazy or racist, and we're not buying it," Blackwell told Just the News.“...
"What I [Burgess Owens] find extremely offensive is the narrative from the left that Black people are not smart enough, not educated enough, not desirous enough of education to do what every other culture and race does in this country: get an ID," Owens testified. "True racism is this: It's the projection of the Democratic Party on my proud race. It's called the soft bigotry of low expectations."
—
One of the biggest pushbacks came last week in an op-ed published by Real Clear Politics in which a half dozen African-American leaders claimed the black community supports voter ID but the issue has been hijacked by white liberals.
"The data seems clear: A majority of Black Americans support voter ID laws," the op-ed argued. Yet, they claim, "opportunistic activists like Stacey Abrams pretend the entire Black community stands behind them and the radical Democrat Party," crafting a narrative in which black people "are either opposed to voter ID or, even more offensively, that Blacks are incapable of obtaining IDs."

In related new, the Left will go all out no-holds-barred pedal to the metal to stop the recount in Maricopa County by all means necessary. They will not allow it to happen.

Suspicion only: BLM and Antifa and the woke mob will descend on Arizona with everything they got to stop the recount in one county. Must not happen! It’s far right wing racist ideology!!
Exit question. Is it just me or has anyone else noticed when they attack Dr. Rebane, they always compare him (us) to Nazis but never to the Communist Party of China, Maoists, Leninists, or Marxists. Guess they hold the latter dear to their harden hearts. It takes zero courage to be repulsed by the word and image of the SS, generally referred as ‘Nazi’, ‘Hitler’.

Iranian foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif claimed in recently leaked audio that John Kerry, when he was serving as Secretary of State during the Obama administration, informed him of more than 200 Israeli operations in Syria.
Kerry has previously been accused of colluding with Iranian leaders to undermine the Trump administration. Kerry is now a part of the Biden administration and has a seat on the National Security Council as the special presidential envoy for climate.
Kerry shocked Zarif by revealing that Israel had attacked Iranian targets in Syria more than 200 times, according to leaked audio obtained by The New York Times and other outlets.

Great Paul, can’t wait to hear the ever changing infor. Don’t keep us waiting in childlike anticipation.
Generally, with few exceptions, I follow polls on issues. Things that matter. You, my dear retired fellow, generally follow polls on specific politicians (mostly and more often than not
current and recent Presidents) but not the policies and issues the American people care about. Sure, some Washington policies nobody but the Bubble insiders care about and would rather not be made public.

FIRST AMENDMENT WIN IN THE OFFING
I think the first time I was really aware of Kamala Harris was when, as Attorney General of California, she launched a strike against conservative nonprofits. The State of California demanded access to donor information that is protected from disclosure by federal law. Harris pretended that California wanted the donor information not to disclose it, but to use it to investigate charitable fraud, but everyone believed that her real purpose was to facilitate leaks that would lead to doxxing, Twitter attacks on public-facing companies, and hostile crowds gathered on conservative donors’ lawns.
Subsequent experience supports the conclusion that Harris’s stated rationale was a pretext:

Since the po' ol' pollhead want to play here is one under you reap what you sow -
A supermajority (72 percent) of Independents are less likely to vote for “a Democrat who supports two trillion dollars in wasteful spending that funds Democrat pet projects without any accountability or transparency for how the money is spent.” Also, a remarkable 71 percent of Independents are less likely to vote for “a Democrat who voted for a 2.3 trillion-dollar infrastructure plan that spends 93% on things OTHER than improving our roads and bridges.”
Also, 69 percent of Independents are less likely to vote for “a Democrat who supports two trillion dollars in wasteful spending that will drag down hourly wages over the next ten years.” 68 percent of Independents are less likely to vote for “a Democrat who voted for a bloated and expensive infrastructure bill that could cost the United States one million jobs in the first two years.”
